Right now I use node version 13.14.0 but to use the new version of create-react-app v5.0.0, I need to use node version 14 or later , which is not supported in windows 8. Does anyone have a solution for this?
error in creating a react app
I'm not aware of Windows 8 not supporting version 14.
You can download whichever version of version 14 you want here:
https://nodejs.org/dist/latest-v14.x/
You can also download the LTS version from here: https://nodejs.org/en/download/

I'm on a Microsoft Surface Pro X (it features Windows 10 Home on ARM 64-bit processor) trying to install Node.js. I've decided to use NVM for Windows. I can successfully install and get NVM for Windows running correctly. To my understanding, I'm able to install different versions of Node (i.e. 16.16.0 and 16.13.1, for example, both LTS) as shown in below graphic. But when I try to run Node, I get the error "This version of C:\Program Files\Nodejs\node.exe is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running. Check your computer's system information and then contact the software publisher."
I am not clear on the why this is happening. Am I not downloading a version of Node that is compatible on my ARM 64-bit processor? I've read through several closed issues on the GitHub page but I haven't encountered someone bringing up this same error. I'm pretty confident it does NOT have to do with the integrity of my symlinks too, or my system environment variables. See below:
Your help and insight is appreciated. Thanks.
My workflow requires nodejs v16 but because of the platform checks the new version isn't available on Windows 7. The reason I have been using Windows 7 still is because I have a really poorly performing Computer with only 4GB ram. Trying some things on the internet have enabled me to install v15 but still some tasks require the new version. Any help would be highly appreciated.
If you create an environment variable called: NODE_SKIP_PLATFORM_CHECK and set it to 1, node 16.6.2 will run on Windows 7. I have not tried any later versions than that, and 16.13 has been reported by others as not working. (Later versions of node use a version of libuv that doesn't support Windows 7, and so will not run even with the environment variable set.)

I am trying to install NodeJS for windows 7. I tried installing the most recent NodeJS but it is not compatible with Windows 7. I was wondering if anyone knows what is the latest version of NodeJS you can install on Windows 7?
Thank you.
Update: Oct 2021, the latest versions working with below "trick" are:
Node v14.16.1 (or older but not below v14.5.0)
Node v15.8.0 (or older but not below v15.0.0)
Because Node updated from libuv v1.40 to v1.41,
and with that, causing Win7 errors:
ws2_32.dll does not have GetHostNameW function (or something alike).
The workaround Method (for versions mentioned above)
The v12.x branch seems to continue supporting Win7 (tested 2021 with Node v12.22.7).
But I needed 14.x version-branch and ended solving problem;
I just installed Node 14.15.0, like:
Go to Node-downloads
Download the Windows Binary (.zip) (either 32/64 bit)
Extract it in the directory where your node is installed and say yes to replace all files (remember that the zip comes with npm, which is in node_modules/npm directory; I didn't copy from the zip because I already updated npm before replacing the files)
Create an Environment variable called: NODE_SKIP_PLATFORM_CHECK and set it to 1
Ready to use Node in Windows 7 for now.
Latest node.js version that (officially) supports Windows 7 is 13.6.0.
https://nodejs.org/download/release/v13.6.0/
It seems that v13.14.0 is the last installer that works on Window 7
go here and select the package related to your version of windows 32 / 64 bits:
https://nodejs.org/dist/latest-v13.x/
I just install in Windows 7 x64 this version
https://nodejs.org/download/release/v13.14.0/
I am trying to run my application on Windows 2008 server and i am getting the same error "This application is only supported on Windows 7,Windows Server 2008 R2, or higher".
Can someone suggest on how to fix this.
Please try to install the Node 4.x LTS version. The current LTS version is 8.12.0.
You can check this link to get supported NodeJS version https://nodejs.org/en/download/releases/
Take note that ES6 will not work in there.
I had the same problem, I followed the link https://nodejs.org/en/download/releases/
and installed Version 8x.
So far works well. If some have a higher version which is works, please share.
I'm trying to install Angular-CLI to generate an angular2 project, but it seems that the cli generate an angular 4 project. how can I fix that ?
So jus to to save you some confusion, the latest version of Angular is 4.2.3, and I believe the CLI is at 1.1.2. The CLI will always configure your generate project to the the latest version of Angular (for the CLI).
Regardless of that, you shouldn't really stick on trying to create "Angular 2" applications. As a community the version number doesn't matter as much anymore. It's not like the migration from AngularJS (version 1) to Angular version 2. Angular version 4 is backwards compatible with Angular version 2. We aren't that concerned with version numbers. Anything and everything you do and how you do it in Angular version 2 will work as expected in the Angular version 4!
However by using the latest version you get new features (like the if/else directives).
Anyway, don't worry to much about the version number, you're just making Angular apps.
